Wellsy, Thank you.

mountnman, I don't but it is a good view across the gorge to Warre Head from the Cooyoyo Creek campsite.

On the weekend a group of us tried to access the top of Pickering Point from the eastern end of Byangee Walls by ascending the ridge after you cross the Clyde River which skirts around the private property at Bhundoo. We go to the second cliff line but after that we ran into some dead ends. Obviously someone had been here before as we found evidence of an old cairn. Has anyone ever tried to access PP from the bottom and walk across the top of Byangee Walls and exit via Castle Gap? Any info appreciated.

I'm no help to you G. I do thank you for resurrecting this great thread though. What stopped you from continuing?

I also wonder if there is a route west from Castle Gap onto the the middle tier of The Castle... I've been up Kalianna Ridge a couple of times and recall large expanses of loose conglomerate cliffs - is it the same on the eastern tip (of the lower cliffline)?
